Nah I'm pretty sure he is talking about "houdini." If Wandy got ahold of him in a clinch or caught him with some power punches he could punish him. I hope this fight happens eventually. I think Wandy is aggressive enough and powerful enough to give him the beat down I've been awaiting. I do give respect to Machida though.

Machida matches up horribly with Wandy IMO. Ryoto has very little power and can't escape Wand's relentless in your face tactics and dirty boxing. Wand by TKO in the second or third.

this can go either way

Wandy needs to watch out for Lyoto's counters

and Lyoto needs to watch out for Wandy's aggressivness.

in the end, i see this going to the ground.

I don't think Machidas counters will phase Wand seeing that they have nothing behind them. Wand can take a lickin and keep on tickin. I think he will eat a few to get in and tear Ryoto apart.

i dont think it'll phase Wandy, but it will throw him off balance for sure. that's my main issue with this fight. it will be very entertaining, and probably better than chuck/wandy.

hopefully we see this one day. the sooner the better.

I was thinkin the same thing. With Wandy's relentless assault I think we could have someone who actually matches up good against Machida. If Wandy can really cut the cage off and get inside somehow, I think it's over before it even starts.
